Thank you seeker....I try really hard not to let my personal problems take over my real need to be supportive. In the grand scheme of things, what I am going through is not life threatening, it is not particularly scary, its just frustrating and the longing to be with my husband is overwhelming at times. Every now and again I reach out for support, and I'm so blessed to have you and all the others here who lift me up when I've fallen down. It is a great comfort to me and I love you and everyone so very much for their caring and concern.

Just know that my heart is with you, Sweety. Somehow, this will all get worked out... sooner rather than later.

I'm sorry you are hurting, Sabau.

One thing you have learned from this is the proof of an old saying -- don't count your chicks before they hatch. I know that is cold comfort right now, but you may find this learning serves you well some time in the future.

I hope things work out anyway and are better than you think right now. You ARE strong and you WILL get through this.

Hugs and hugs and hugs and hugs.

I am sorry this is happening to you hun!

All things will work out in your favour in the end you just watch!

As for the lawyer... He's probably gotta work out his cut of the action first and that'll take him months. LOL.....

Hey there's always that groaner joke about what do you call 1000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean? A darn good idea!!!!

Jean, I know this is nothing in comparison to what you are going through…but I too live away from those I love. All of my family is in other states. We chat online and on the phone. I get to see my parents only 2 or maybe 3 times a year. It is tough being away from those we love. All of us feel a little guilty that we don’t take the time to get together more. Unlike you, I could take the time to see them more. It is just hard for me to travel because of my anxiety. Thanks for sharing your story. I think it has reminded me that I need to really take advantage of every opportunity I have to see my parents and brother. No more excuses of being too anxious. No matter what—the next long weekend I am going to visit my parents—anxiety or not—I am going. Thanks for sharing.

It's a matter of misunderstanding I believe.

When the executrix (Phyllis) and I spoke with the lawyer in December, he said, after 6 months from the date of Phyllis' appointment by the court, we should be able to disperse the first part of the settlement from the estate. The first part is about 1/3 of the total amount I should be receiving from auntie's estate. The other 2/3's will be dispersed one year from auntie's death (November).

I believe that Phyllis probably either didn't understand or forgot what the attorney said and she put the money after her appointment into high interest bearing accounts. Like I said before, that is a good thing, but she should have kept the first 1/3 available within 6 months and the rest could stay for the year.

I'm tempted throw my anger back at them and let them know I'm not happy with this situation. As Wants2 alluded to the fact that I shouldn't have counted my chickens before they hatched, I was only going by what I was told by the people who were in charge. Phyllis knew I was going to need that money to accomplish some things this year. I also have some medical needs that should be attended to and I'm holding off because I have no insurance at the moment.

I don't know...I'm just so frustrated at this point and I'm probably better off just sitting back and waiting. I tend to say things I don't mean when I'm angry so I really work hard at keeping those thoughts to myself until I can convey them in a more professional and calm method.

Thanks for your support joe, as always I do so appreciate YOU!

Thanks so much ((((((((((((((((((ABT)))))))))))))))))))

You are probably right about figuring out his cut of the action...LOL

And I know things will work out in the way they are supposed to work out. It just sucks getting to that point and trying to understand why all the obstacles are being placed in our way. *sigh*

Hon, it doesn't matter whether we think our situations are not on the same level or not. What your situation is to you...that's what's important. I'm so very happy to hear you say you will go visit your family on the next 3 day weekend. I'm proud of you for putting fortht that effort and overcoming your anxiety and fears. You are such a wonderful and strong woman and I know you will do what needs to be done.

Disappointment Rains Down On Me :( Thank you for your understanding. To know that what I posted will somehow help you take action in your own sitaution makes this all worthwhile to me!

Take good care sweety!

Hugsssss
Jean
